The camp was steeper than expected, making parking very difficult.

First impression of our chalet wasn't great. A plain dark green box with breeze block surrounding. But inside we found everything we needed (bit of a tardis really)...Parking was on the grass next to it and so that got muddy. There seemed to be accommodation squeezed in every direction but on our weekend 29/8/14 it wasn't crazy busy and so as it was fab weather sunbathed on the grass behind the chalet. The rural setting was great for the kids finding the nature trails and the tree swing. The swing park and sports pitches were also great for them. We could sit on bar terrace and watch them securely. Evening entertainment was not for me, but again kids loved it. Shop was handy and food in restaurant/bar was good (ate there 3 nights for eve meal) All staff were friendly and pool area although a little dated was clean and tidy. Would go there again

inadequate facilities for the size of this park queues for everything pool too small and next to restaurant pervading chlorine smell. food cold after waiting an hour for it also not as ordered. only 4 washing machines in launderette for entire site no facilities for adults and all entertainment except bingo aimed at 7-9 year olds up to 11pm. entertainment staff untalented. music played at deafening levels. Only 2 buses per week service this site taxis average £15 per journey. beach area smells of sewage due to septic tank nearby. All Communal areas filthy. rats abound at refuse/recycling areas No footpaths to walk around camp had to walk in the road ONE DAY THERE WAS NO WATER ON SITE DUE TO A BURST PIPE so we were told when I called reception. No internet available at all despite their claims. hated the place. AVIOD THIS CAMP. will never return to it!

The Park was pretty and well set, it had lots of facilities but they weren't welcoming, we never used the pool because there was always something happening in it for example. Its a great location for touring from and well priced, but we found the park not that useful and the shop was more souvenir than supermarket.

It was a good base. Our fridge was not working properly and we asked for it to be fixed said there was no ticket but supervisor could see it on the system this happened twice. Last day no water in the camp. Disgusting with children. No water in the shop

The lodge was In a good position as it was next to a field but disappointing as the entertainment was very poor. Nothing like we had at Paignton last year, I wouldn't stay there again. Also there was no wifi which is advertised in brochure.

A difficult place to find, mainly due to lack of road signs and the actual chalet was also hard to find once we were on the park.

A little bit remote, and the beach isn't great but as a base it ticked all the boxes.

Fantastic Holiday at Thorness Bay - Lovely facilities in a beautiful setting. Would definitely go back. We have stayed at many Park Resorts and this was one of the nicest. You will need a car to stay here though - it cant be reached by public transport.

Parking was awful. We were next to a building site. We had to chase reception after six hours of reporting our boiler wouldn't work and asking for more pillows. The price was really low and the park's quality matched the price.

In the local area...Taking a break at one of our holiday parks in the Isle of Wight is the perfect way to enjoy this beautiful island’s family friendly resorts, lovely safe beaches and exciting leisure facilities. As you’d expect from an island with 60 miles of beautiful, unspoilt coastline and famously sunny weather, you’ll find an excellent range of water sports and other thrilling activities within easy reach of our holiday parks. The Isle of Wight is a favourite with sailors and deep sea anglers, but you can also try your hand at windsufing, jet skiing, sailplane flying and hang gliding. And the Blackgang Chine Fantasy Park or breathtaking chairlift rides at Needles Park offer plenty of adrenaline boosting fun.

Choose Hoseasons caravan holidays on the Isle of Wight and you’ll never be far from great attractions for all the family. Explore the island’s amazing prehistoric legacy at the Dinosaur Farm and Dinosaur Isle Museum or search out living wildlife at the zoo and at Parkhurst Forest, one of the few remaining habitats of the British red squirrel. There’s lovely coastal and country walking and cycling too – the more energetic might like to follow the round island route.
